Legionnaires Said Attempted Kidnappers Of Israeli Farmers By UNITED PRESS An Israeli spokesman said Jor dan Legionnaires tried to kidnap two Israeli farmers Saturday in border gunfights in retaliation for the alleged kidnaping of a Jordanian farmer. Spokesman Saul Ramatl said in Tel Aviv that tractor driver Ashdot Yaacov drove off two armed Arabs in a Jordan Valley settlement and that 90 minutes later Israeli Rubin Kfar escaped an attack near the village of Beisan. Israeli officials said these incidents and the killing of two Israeli hikers near Petra, Jordan, were retaliatory attacks for the alleged kidnaping. Israe li again insisted the man was an infiltrator who would be brought to trial. Official Jordan government circles in Amman said new Is raeli "provocations" were heightening tension in the Mid dle East and accused United Na tions truce officials of trying to play down the latest episodes. Official sources said Jordan was reserving the right to take action if the incidents were not halted, and travelers reaching Amman from Jerusalem said civ ilians and soldiers there were standing by to repulse any Is raeli moves. Jordan's Ramallah Radio said the Israelis had penetrated into Jordan to kidnap villager Abdul Rahman Abu said. It again threatened Jordanian action if he is not returned. Government sources in Jordan said the kidnaping and an effort to carry prohibited gasoline into the Israeli enclave of Mount Sco pus were increasing tension and criticized the U.N. truce organi zation for not moving more swiftly. The Jordan's especially criti cized Col. Byron Leary, acting chief of the U.N. truce organiza tion, for slowness in reporting on the latest Israeli acts. They not ed that the U.N. Security Coun cil was awaiting his report be fore taking action.

Colorado authorities hiked their early figure of 10 deaths to 290 attributable to flu in some way or other, while the Maine health department added 20 new deaths, "primarily the result of flu or its after effects." Earlier, Pennsylvania announc ed that 188 persons died as a direct result of Asian flu, other types of influenza, and compli cations of both since the flu invasion last summer. A four-month count by United Press showed Colorado leading the nation, followed by Pennsyl vania.

It was the second time in recent weeks the Jordanis has complained about the American colonel. Jordan's Foreign Minister Samir Rifai was returning to Amman today from talks with King Saud of Saudi. Arabia and observers in the Jordan capital expressed hope Rifai would be able to find a peaceful solution to the various incidents.
